True North
by The Timbre of Cedar

Album: Restoring The Light

I can feel my discontent
Like a lion in my chest
As it threatens to devour
Every dream that I have left
I can see the chains of fear
As I'm staring in the mirror
And I'm tired of pretending
They're the reason that I'm here

I've tried to place the blame
On a life I've chosen not to change

Break down all of my pride
I thought that I could hide
In the arms of safety
Love take hold of my heart
And lead me toward true north
Cause I was made for more
Than a separated heart

I could shake my fist at God
Or the people that I love
Until all my jurisdiction
Has been swept under the rug
The framework that I've made
Starts to crack under the weight
Of the borrowed expectations
That I know I can't sustain

Am I finally awake, fever starting to break
Only chasing my dreams when I'm falling asleep
I've been living my life sleepwalking
I wanna dream with my eyes wide open
